RadioShack Clearance

adamwinn · Jun 14, 2006

I searched and couldn't find a thread on this already, so here we go:

RadioShack is closing some of their locations, and the ones slated for closure (Store Locator) have some crazy clearance deals going on. If you go to fatwallet you can find a full thread with all the popular deals listed.

Basically they are reducing everything by a % until the store is empty. Right now they are transitioning from 30% off everything to 40% off everything. Certain things (cables, etc) are up to 60% off.

I just went to my local RadioShack and snagged this 13.8VDC 3 amp power supply for like $17 after all the discounts were applied.

g0dM@n · Jun 14, 2006

wow... 20min (12 miles) away from me I found one closing... now is it worth the 20min each way + gas + time for 40%?

know if there are any deals better than that, or is it straight up 40% for all?

=ACID RAIN= · Jun 14, 2006

How do you find out if it's closing or not? is this on the website or do you have to call?

Shoeby · Jun 14, 2006

check the store locator, if a store in your area is closing there'll be a big tag next to it that says store closing, everything on sale.

SteveLord · Jun 14, 2006

they still want $15 for a USB printer cable...

said screw that and bought one from a local small business shop for $4

IKIKUINTHENUTZ · Jun 14, 2006

Hehe 3 of them near my house are closing

btw i picked up a old aluminum heatsink w/ 40mm fan pentium cooler from them for only 4$ and it can be slighty modded into a chipsetcooler, its better than stock but not that much

Maviryk · Jun 14, 2006

None of the ones near me are closing.

neonblingbling · Jun 15, 2006

Does it say on the location finder if any are closing? If that's the case,

WHOOOOOO I got 2 closing near me!!! Out of like 15 but whatever. I HAVE GIFT CARDS!!!!!

Just Some Dude · Jun 15, 2006

No wonder they're closing up. They've been turning into some kind of "best Buy" store for years. They should've stuck with the original business model. I walk in them looking for a moderately obscure part and they look at me like I'm crazy. Most employees there know nothing about electronics, proper a/v setup, or computers. They are, to put it bluntly, like every other retailer.

adamwinn · Jun 15, 2006

When/If you go, grab some of the $10 off $20 purchase coupons at the front! If they aren't left out, ask for em! Puuuure gold.

EvilCloudStrife · Jun 15, 2006

maybe i can pick up some much needed soldering equipment for cheap

Much worse - compared to most retailers their selection stinks.

Anyone have any good ideas for stuff I could get there? There's a store closing 7 miles from my home...

I need a punch-down tool for work, do they carry these in-store?

Slayer2003 · Jun 16, 2006

I CLEANED HOUSE!!!!

I got everything pictured ehre, for $11.45. Not bad, considering it would have cost me over $40 to do normally. I pretty much wiped out everything they had left components wise.

damarble · Jun 16, 2006

One 5 minutes from my work is closing. I need some stuff for my carpc, better check it out.

IKIKUINTHENUTZ · Jun 16, 2006

heres that 4$ HS i mentioned

the last one has a bad lapped job

its soo small and easy to convert it to a chipset cooler

adamwinn · Jun 17, 2006

haha i almost bought that hs too!

I'm very happy with my $4 soldering iron (its okay to have 3 or 4, or 5...), bag full of resistors, 48 range multimeter with pc interface, bag full of DP clips, $1.30 s-video cable for Gamecube, etc

Krome · Jun 17, 2006
